1. Start with the calls your team cannot answer
Bosseo’s public product description positions AI Answering as a backstop: calls go to your team first, and the AI steps in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. The page also describes coverage for nights, weekends, holidays and overflow, plus handling for up to 20 simultaneous calls. These are product statements, not a forecast of how many calls your firm receives in Marvin or Union County. Review your current phone setup instead. Identify unanswered calls, busy-line conditions, lunch coverage, after-hours messages and calls that arrive when staff are in court or with clients. Ask whether the same response should apply to every caller or whether some situations need immediate human attention.
Recommended approach
Bring a recent, privacy-appropriate description of your phone path to the consultation. Decide whether the AI should act only after an unanswered ring, and document the conditions that should transfer, escalate or create a prompt callback.
